I applied online. I interviewed at Leidos (Columbia, MD) in Mar 2017
Interview
Met in a room with about 10 other candidates who were then pulled individually into a large conference room. In this room there were multiple interviews being conducted at the same time. It was pretty loud and made it difficult to have a conversation with the interviewer.
Very smooth and mixture of technical and personal questions. Had 2 of them. Negotiation was difficult and they wouldn’t go up in salary. But the PTO and 401(k) was hard to pass up.
Typical phone screen asking behavioral STAR questions. General stuff like describing your previous experiences. Describe how you used data science and scripting tools to accomplish big data analytics in your previous jobs?

Question 1
Describe how you used data science and scripting tools to accomplish big data analytics in your previous jobs?
Very quick interview process. Professional interviewers stuck to topics at hand and respected my time frame. Took maybe 5-10 minutes at a maximum. Would recommend working for this company in the future.
